Gloria Estefan and her 25-year-old daughter, Emily, aren't afraid to have a candid, emotional conversation about sexuality on the family's new Facebook Watch series, . In one of the show's first episodes, Emily confronts Gloria about her famous mother's reaction to her coming out as gay. Noting she was «really nervous,» when she finally came out to her mother, Emily added, «I was like, 'Hey, I'm in love with this girl.' The first thing you said was, 'If you tell your grandma and she dies, her blood is on your hands.' I just wasn't ready for that. I understand my grandma was old, but it already made it feel like, whatever it is, hide it.
